I am the website developer for a company and I want to show statistics from social networks on our site. Facebook has put me through a loop. The fb account was created as a business and I know now that business accounts cannot create or edit apps with the FB API.

Is there any way access analytics/statistics without an App ID and secret? or do I have to make a personal account to use the FB API?

A good example of this is Blackberry's Community page. I can't tell if they have a personal or business account but it is exactly what I would like to achieve.

That answered my question but I realized I want to get recent posts as well to be displayed. I guess if I want to go that far I would have to make a personal account to access the api.

Yes, you need to get an access token and the manage_pages permission to access posts on a page. You could always use some of the social plugins to get likes and page activity, like the Like Box: developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like-box - doesn't look too pretty though! If it works for you, please accept the answer!
